Mixing coziness with style in your closet can never get better without the Easy Chunky Crochet Sweater from Kiks + Jack Crochet. Its oversized fit will give you comfort while simple stitch patterns make it very beginner-friendly.
Yarn & Hook for a Chunky Masterpiece
To make this crochet sweater, use Lion Brand Heartland yarn. It is an aran weight yarn that features a tweed look with some bright pops of color (such as blue, green, and red) that contrast nicely against the neutral grey. Be sure to pair it with a 5 mm crochet hook.
Simple Steps for Creating Your Sweater
The Easy Chunky Crochet Sweater pattern is simple enough for beginners, using mainly the puff stitch and half double crochet. The garment consists of two panels worked from the bottom up, starting with the ribbing. The sleeves are crocheted separately to be seamed together at the end.
Styling and Fitting Tips
Thanks to the ribbed bottom this garment will stay nicely in place over jeans, long skirts, or leggings, making it a comfortable wardrobe staple.
Moreover, the Easy Chunky Crochet Sweater pattern gives you a lot of options for customization. For example, the neckline is designed as a shallow V, which you may adjust for a deep off-shoulder look. You might also like to make your sweater longer or shorter depending on what suits your taste better.
